StOr is also the umbrella organisation for all student organisations and associations at UiS.This means that StOr is responsible for facilitating an active student environment that promotes student welfare, social and cultural interests as well as academic needs.

Today there are close to 70 student organizations and associations at UiS and we encourage you to start new organisations. StOr safeguards student’s democratic, academic and social needs and rights through positive student involvement and work.

This is done in part through the Fadder festival and organizing to student political work and through the
election of student representatives to boards, councils and committees at UiS.
